Narrative

The employee was disconnecting the road widener machine from the front of the loader boom. The left coupling pin got stuck and he was using a hammer and a large bolt to knock the pin loose. As he struck the bolt, the pin freed up, and the finger he was holding the bolt with was pinched between the couplers cutting his finger. He received stitches from this incident.
